I bought The Official Disney Parks Cookbook to bring a little Disney magic into our home, and it did not disappoint. The recipes are easy to follow, beautifully photographed, and cover everything from classic snacks to full meals you’d find in the parks.It’s not just a cookbook — it’s a nostalgic trip down Main Street, perfect for family cooking nights, Disney fans, or anyone who misses the parks. A must-have for your collection! 🏰🍴
We’ve been going through the recipes for food (skipping drinks and desserts) and I’ve liked all of them so far. My favorite is the batuuan wrap - I got to try spices that I never used before and I guess the experience has been educational.I also have my 15-year-old cousin cook from it. The steps are easy enough he can do most of them (with guidance) and he’s learning common cooking terms and techniques. I think it also helps him practice focusing and learning about measuring things like carrots and shredded cabbage. He still is padawan. He interpreted shredded cabbage as one leaf of cabbage and tear it a few times - the cole slaw ended up looking like some fancy gourmet chef’s $300 appetizer.The recipes I think are simplified so a family can make it and sometimes you have to be creative to make what you make look like the picture (I would invest in squeeze bottles). So sometimes cooking experience helps. But what you make is edible and tastes good.What I don’t like is that there isn’t a TABLE OF CONTENTS. And the index is not alphabetical. The Index is by type of food and specific location. The recipe book is organized by theme park. Other than that major pitfall, I really like this book! I actually bought a second copy for my cousin. And my other cousin bought her own copy too.I even used the batuuan wrap (Bah-too-oo-ahn) wrap for my birthday bbq party. We used beef strips instead of pork butt and naan instead of pita. I normally hate coleslaw but this one is pretty good. And I personally would add more Sichuan peppercorn and sumac.
Thank you
Bride loved it
Bought it for my mom to Make stuff right out of the parks. It’s pretty cool for a gift and it’s detailed.
This was a Christmas gift to my boyfriend’s mom, and she loves it. 10/10.
It is a great Disneyland cookbook and the walt's chili and beans are spicy and delicious
THIS GIFT WAS FOR MY GRANDAUGHTER. SHE STUDIED CULINARY ARTS AND SHE LIKES VERY MUCH THIS DISNEY BOOK.
Cute gift for a Disney Enthusiast …I made a Disney Wedding Shower Gift Basket and I included this cookbook and the Bride loved it.
Definitely worth the money. Fun to do with the kids. It brought the Disney magic to us!
Absolutely amazing!
This is a beautifully put together cookbook. It would make a wonderful addition to anyone's cookbook library or it would look great as a coffee table book!
This was a gift for someone, so while I can't attest to the taste of the recipes, I can say that the look of the book didn't disappoint. I briefly flipped through it, and the pictures were just beautiful. If you are a Disney fan who likes to cook, I would confidently recommend this book!
Great receipts easy to read and understand
I bought this Disney World cookbook as a Christmas gift for a Disney lover, and it was a huge hit! The recipes are fun, easy to follow, and bring a little bit of Disney magic to the kitchen. It’s perfect for anyone who loves Disney food or wants to recreate iconic park dishes at home when they're missing Disney world!. A fun and thoughtful gift for any Disney fan!
This was a surprise gift for my Disney-loving mom for Christmas. Great full color pictures of each recipe with descriptions of where the item is served (or other tidbit) in the park. Good variety of different types of dishes. So far, every recipe has been yummy.
Gave this cookbook to my grandson and his new wife. They were going to Disney world and were excited to try some of the food listed as recipes in the book. They said when they come back they can try some of them and relive their time there.
alot of very simplistic recipes from Disney, not alot of the key items people want
One thing I know when I have previously visited the Disney parks (and hope to in the future), is that most of the food is memorable. I make sure I pre-order every single Disney Parks cookbook for this reason, and this one does not disappoint. Maybe there was a meal you wanted to enjoy, but couldn't fit it in on your vacation, or there was a meal you can't forget about, and need it at home, too.The recipes are easy, and haven't disappointed yet. My husband who hates chili, loved Walt's recipe! The Brown Derby Cobb Salad is a staple, and the charred corn chowder is rich and delicious, for just a few recipes I've made from this book. I have many more saved for later!There may be some recipes that have ingredients I wasn't able to readily find in my local Publix, since chicory leaves didn't have a place on the shelf. But, overall, the recipes have easy to follow directions, and many beautiful pictures.If you love to cook, and a Disney fan, this 100% belongs on your shelf! I will continue to come back to it over and over.
I took a chance on this book because in the past, i did like eating at the park even though the prices are astronomical now lol. But I thought maybe they will have things i have never seen before and exactly, so many dishes, so many desserts and a good sprinkling of different alcoholic drinks. So it's not for kiddie recipes, although there are some great looking desserts in here. What i like is there is also dishes from Aulani in Hawaii, like Poke, so it has a lot of new things to try. The next time the company has a potluck it will be from one of these recipes as they all look so good. And no, not all the recipes are unique, but they are brought together as recipes used at one of the Disney resorts, so it's interesting also to see what they serve at the different areas, including california adventure, epcot, aulani, and disneyland of course. Anyways, for the price you can't go wrong. Coupon cuts price to 10.xx.
